Our Junior Infants have been learning about France this week as part of our new topic for the month. We have looked at where France is, how we get there and some of the things that are different like the language they speak and some foods they eat! Some things are very similar to Ireland too, like the money they use and the clothes the people in France wear.

We were very excited to learn about some of the famous landmarks in France and the children were particularly interested in the Eiffel tower - did you know our teacher has been right to the top? We thought that was pretty cool!

So we decided to make our own Eiffel towers, complete with red, blue and white paper straws - the colours of the French flag!
